Demographics for Layoffs - very few Jews Losing Jobs

[abduLMaria]

one thing I am noticing at the local level (California) is that when I look at the org. chart for the local junior college or for the country and city admin, and just from talking to people about lay-offs at their companies - very few Jewish people are being laid off.

However, I don't want to make this specious accusation without having something besides personal observation to back it up.

I also notice that a pro-Zionist attitude helps people get new jobs.  My brother got laid off by a start-up in San Diego.  He advises companies on how to use social networking to increase their marketing.  He uses his Facebook page as a business page.  Like a million others, he expressed his outrage over the death of "Dena", that Iranian woman protester who was shot.  And, like a million others, he is completely silent about Gaza and the Iraq War, etc.  His clients are Google-type companies like these

The thing that seems a little strange about the job-loss demographics is that it's not as if the Jewish managers & other staff employees left behind are the only people with the requisite skills for the job.  There are plenty of people of other ethnicities who have management and technical and bureaucratic skills.

Does anybody know any Bureau of Labor Statistics type wizardry where you can find out the details of lay-offs in America, broken down by ethnicity ?

One other note - I could not figure out why the government was spending $100's of billions so that some bankers could keep their jobs, then hemmed and hawed about spending $30 billion to help 300,000 auto-workers keep their jobs.  though actually auto-industry jobs have a lot of follow on/ carry on/ multiplier effect, what's the economist word ?

I couldn't figure it out.  Why are both the Bush & Obama administrations willing to spend SO much money bailing out maybe 20,000 bankers, and so little on 300,000+ auto worker folks ?

Some would say, "Oh, special interests."  But it looks to me like in this case, the special interests are Jewish bankers, who get to keep their jobs.

How many Jewish auto-workers are there ?

Interesting observation AbdulMaria.

I have to concur.  I once worked at a company that had been savaged after the 2001 Layoffs, and sure enough all that were left were the Jews and their Diversifiers.  They will weasel and blame as long as they are not shown the door despite their ignorance and incompetence. I rarely saw anything good happen with a Jew Manager perched up on a Project.  

I seriously believe America would be a "rich" and relatively balanced country without them and their bankrupt management skills. If you ever had to clean up after their mess, you do not want them around touching, talking, lying, weaseling -- anything at all. Given enough time, they will ruin just about any good organization.

thanks, CSR !

speaking of bankrupt management skills ... one of the last Jewish managers i worked for was named "Sugarman".

anyway, Sugarman in one conversation (he was a program manager, i was a project manager working for him) told me, "the schedule is trash".  one week later, he was removed as program manager and replaced with an Asian American co-worker.

the new guy had an interesting "secret management skill".  it's called "telling the truth".  he took a totally out-of-control program and just started making small incremental improvements.
